Bl4ck32,

With your new combo you'll do more than just pass me! How long till we get to see the full power of your beast unleashed?

At least two weeks before I can get a IC kit ;) But turbo and manifold are in Australia :( so it'll be a lightning run in :rofl:

Any longer and i think im gunna :Bang:

Very nice.  It's funny how long these things can take, but you've has a lot of ups and downs with your car for so long.  With the same fundamental mechanical package it's gone from 180 to ~300.  It's good to have that development and optimisation over time.

BTW....GO THE GARRETT/MICROTECH LEGENDS VS THE TWO LOCAL HKS/POWER FC SLY AND DIRTY ENEMY!  The war continues  :rofl:

Yep mate, it's sure has been a long time in the making. It's cost a few dollars too!

Haha, I love the bit in bold :( You just wanted to use that Star Wars smiley didn't you? :)

whatsisname, better put it on the autosalon dyno and watch it make 100rwkw more then it really does ;)

That sort of thing doesn't happen at Autosalon does it!? :D

Bahhhh... it's all in the 1/4 numbers lads :)

Me - the original 12sec driver in an 11sec car.

Lachlan (Freebaggin) - into the 12's and looking to go quicker very soon.

Brendan (B-man) - still got the L plates on but catching up quick! Soon to go much quicker than me!!!

Steve - hmmm.... what's this I see!? Lots of power but nil attempts at the 1/4! :D Go on mate give it a go. You know deep down you really want to :D Your rear tyres are up to the task, we already know that :)

Yep mate, it's sure has been a long time in the making. It's cost a few dollars too!  

Haha, I love the bit in bold :) You just wanted to use that Star Wars smiley didn't you? :(  

Err its called CAPS not BOLD hehe, what school did u go to? Sailsbury High :)

He works in Salisbury:)

Me, 1/4 times? who wants to only drive the car for 400m? If I wanted a car to take down the 1/4, I would have bought an old holden commodore (or maybe a cortina, with a 351 in it), spent 10-15K and had a 10 second car - easy. But then there would be people doing 9 second passes - spose I would have to throw a few more large at it, then there would be others doing 8s - where does it stop?

My car is built purely for driving pleasure:p all day, every day.

EDIT: GO THE HKS/POWER FC COMBO!

did you like that Matt? caps and bold.

sorry, in stupid mood.

Dean Dean Dean, you seriously have nothing to do, do you? Caps, bold, whatever... you all got the general idea! :rofl:

Steve, you still want to give it a shot though don't you? Deep down I know your probably curious... go on admit it! :P And naaa it wasn't that impressive. Had you gone for caps, bold AND italics then I would've been impressed :(

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
